Disney World Shuts Down Major Park Due to Weather Concerns

Things got a little too chilly for Blizzard Beach at the Walt Disney World Resort. The Florida resort temporarily closed the year-round Blizzard Beach Water Park Saturday due to "low temperatures" in the mid 50s rising to highs in the upper 60s,  WDW Magic  reports.

Blizzard Beach reopened in November 2022 after an extended refurbishment, featuring a retheming of the Tike's Peak children's area to include touches from Disney's Frozen and Frozen II .
